Steve, I see 386's put together on factory floor and allowing scanner and voice data collection w/i 5 yrs. So, I'm sure in 5 yrs a p166 will do it Someone's still using 386s?? Where are they getting the chips? Strictly from a cost perspective the older p-chips have to be the same price, so maybe not p166 mmx, but surely at least a p120 or faster. Regards, Rich PS there are some statistical types working on things too, maybe not as many as there are engineers, but . . .
